VHS Movie Reviews of French Twist
Movie Review: Fun and stylish
Summary: 4 Stars
A feelgood movie that only the French could make. Or maybe the Italians. I saw it on TV and hugged myself with so much glee I bought the DVD. The clothes are stylish, the setting sunny and the outcome just right. Alain Chabat is marvellous as the spoiled but charming cuckold, and the two women are perfectly cast for sparks to fly. A romantic comedy for the 21st century.Movie Review: 2nd best French comedy I ever saw.
Summary: 5 Stars
See this only if you are not a homophobic homohating person or with someone who is. It is delightfully funny. Next to Les Visiteurs, the largest ever attended comedy film in France, this movie is one big laugh after another. The movie holds your attention throughout its play and does not drag at any spot. It has a story line flow which is easily followed. Well worth the view. I have seen it twice. Now shopping for it on DVD to show to my new wife.Movie Review: My Favorite Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is the greatest. The story is just fabulous and the sound track is gorgeous and romantic. Alain Shabat, who plays the male lead, & husband, is one of the most talented actors I have ever seen. His facial expressions, and body language are perfect. I love this movie. I watch it again, and again, whenever I want to laugh and be happy.
If you are a woman, and you have been "wronged" by your man, this movie will make you feel exceedingly happy, when you see the tables turned on the cheating husband. It is so, so entertaining. It's my favorite movie of all time!
Movie Review: French Twist
Summary: 3 Stars
Plot was a little far fetched for American viewers. Someone who understands European mentality can appreciate it more.Movie Review: Very funny!!
Summary: 3 Stars
I liked this movie alot! It was very entertaining! Probably the only thing I didn't like about it was that the dyke the girl is seeing is old and ugly! My girlfriend usually doesn't like movies if she doesn't think the characters are attractive but this is is just to weird and funny to pass up!
Summary of French Twist
Sassy, sexy, and utterly outrageous, this comedy treat received outstanding critical acclaim and a Golden Globe Award nomination! Saucy suburban housewife Loli is furious when she discovers her playboy husband is a wild womanizer who has been cheating on her left and right for years! But things take an unusually funny turn when the van of a tough-talking, tender-hearted woman named Marijo breaks down in front of Loli's house! From then on, expect the hilariously unexpected as Marijo and Loli's relationship develops into much more than just a friendship ... and between the two of them, they devise the perfect revenge!Josiane Balasko wrote, directed, and costars in this lightweight French comedy about a lesbian (Balasko) who falls for a housewife (Victoria Abril) seething over the philandering of her husband (Alain Chabat). The latter is outraged about his spouse's same-sex affair, but over time, the two rivals make peace with the situation--causing Abril's character to throw a hissy fit of her own. This is a cute film that becomes, thank goodness, more interesting as it goes along, challenging comfortable notions about love as a haven from other challenges to the heart. --Tom Keogh
